General Personal Injury FAQs — Westwood Shores

• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Westwood Shores allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like compartment syndrome. Don’t accept “There’s a gap in your medical care.” at face value.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Westwood Shores?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “We’re waiting on statements from witnesses.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., The General) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a crash victim awaiting ambulance with pancreatic trauma, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓Do I have to take a low offer or can we fight for a better result?
  You never have to accept a lowball. We negotiate hard with insurers, and when needed we move toward a jury awarded damages in 411th Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 1.18M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Westwood Shores.
• ❓An adjuster told me “We need to confirm your insurance coverage..” Can a Westwood Shores personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “We need to confirm your insurance coverage.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Branch Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a pre-trial settlement in 411th Judicial District Court and pursue full compensation.
• ❓What should I do if MetLife Auto & Home says “The damage doesn’t match your account of the crash.” after my Westwood Shores crash?
  Insurers like MetLife Auto & Home often use lines such as “The damage doesn’t match your account of the crash.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like cervical disc replacement can be life-changing. In Westwood Shores, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a jury awarded damages in 411th Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 1.54M.
